WARNING
Various electronic equipment in your vehicle may malfunction if they are not
properly protected from the radio frequency energy which is present while
transmitting. Typical examples include electronic fuel injection, anti-skid
braking, and cruise control. If your vehicle contains such equipment, consult the
dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his/her aid in determining if they will
perform normally while transmitting.

CONNECTING THE POWER CABLE

CAUTION
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems only! Check the
battery polarity and voltage of the vehicle before installing the transceiver.
1 Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the firewall, where the
power cable can be passed through.
If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill a hole, then install a rubber
grommet.
2 Run the power cable through the firewall and into the engine compartment.
3 Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead to
the negative (–) battery terminal.
Place the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
4 Coil the surplus cable and secure it with a retaining band.
Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be
removed for servicing while keeping the power applied.
